Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria

He was playing at grandma's today and was left alone for 2 minutes and got into the markers. When asked why he colored on himself he stated, "I didn't color myself. They are owies." He then proceeded to stick out his lower lip and gave a sad look. Only two years old and already lying! Couldn't be mad though. He is so sweet. An angel!

So how many of us have more than one pair of shoes, more than the clothes on our backs, food in the fridge and cabinets and money in the bank or vault, and don't spend every possible minute doing charity?

So, let's not ignore the sentiment. Let's try to actually do something to help the poor.

We're making bag lunches this Saturday to feed local homeless. You are more than welcome to join us.

Well, sometimes we need to be reminded over and over and over until we understand.

I know my mom had to repeat herself a number of times when I was young, until her lesson took root and stuck.

The breath of Thine Holy Spirit inspires artists, poets and scientists. The power of Thy supreme knowledge makes them prophets and interpreters of Thy laws, who reveal the depths of Thy creative wisdom. Their works speak unwittingly of Thee. How great art Thou in Thy creation! How great art Thou in man!

I don't think your comment was appropriate. First and for most you shouldn't call anyone barbarian...that's just plain cruel...especially coming out of a christian person. Second, everybody deserves freedom. We are all the children of God and nobody deserves to be under the oppression of another...so next time you wanna make a comment like that, please think twice.

Perhaps I should post some of the pictures that I have from this war. They would meet the definition of barbarian in whatever way you wanted to take the word, and make my Nazi ancestors look angelic. I do, however, totally disagree with the idea of colonization.
